Arlen Anstett
Starting Pitcher | Retired or Inactive Players
Pitching Anstett likes to get hitters looking down and away, then ties them up by coming inside with hard stuff, getting a lot of groundball outs. He's a good late inning man, which is when being a pitcher really counts. If you're going in to face Anstett, better be wearing plenty of protection. He's wild. He's almost as effective against lefthanders as he is versus righthanders.
Defense & Hitting Anstett doesn't make much of an attempt to combat the running game. Basestealers ran at will last year. Anstett is agile on the mound, though he makes needless errors when his concentration wanders. Anstett is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Anstett has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Retired or Inactive Players have been known to use Anstett as a pinch-runner on occasion.
2025 Outlook Anstett flat-out isn't ready for this level of competition. Expect the Retired or Inactive Players to send him down promptly. But if you ask me, I'll pass on Anstett.
